yes, as long as the width and instep are fine, you should be fine. when you say your feet slides, do you mean your heel slides? then you might want to just get a thin insole to prevent that.
I really not sure what people mean by heel slides, but for me is that my feet could move front and back of the boots (.5in)

Guys i've been struggling with finding some cool pair of sneaks, i am wanting something not as bulky as RO or as extreme as CCP. Been looking at hender scheme but not sure if an all black pair is for me neither is the all tan pair.

Wondering if there are some good suggestions for all leather sneaks.

Oh looked into James Kearns, amazing stuff but i feel like i need a boot tuck to make it work.

im in exactly the same situation , got bored of wearing boots all the time and wanting something easy to wear with black jeans or more casual stuff ... got some cheap superga and converse from yoox that are vintaged and look pretty nice

just pulled the trigger on those 019 A1923 from hide m , bit worried as you say about having to do a boot tuck every time due to the size of the tongue but they are the best looking pair of sneakers i can find ...

also ordered some of the BBS tf grey pants so hopefully i will look as good as the hide m pics :)

Got my guidi 795V boots, really happy with them. However, it came out to be somewhat big in term of the length like I can fit a finger in it , the wide and instep feels me comfortable right out of the box. I wonder if I should just add an insole or try to return them?

If anyone have a 42 or 41.5 let me know. I’m a size US 8
41.5 should fit your nicely after break in

I don't get this, why would the paint sole edges for free unless a customer requested it, sounds like an additional service
